Contribute FeedbackVisiting Tiptree Tea Rooms in Chelmsford offers a mix of experiences. Some guests have found the noise and lack of personal service disappointing, feeling like an airport waiting area, while others rave about the traditional afternoon tea experience, complete with crumbly scones and friendly staff. Although some issues with customer service and rushed closing times have been reported, the delectable food and charming atmosphere have left others excited to return. From delicious cream teas to refreshing apple juice and carrot cake, this tea room offers a range of options to enjoy while shopping or simply relaxing with friends.
As the management don't respond to any reviews it makes me wonder if it's worth commenting? Reason for 1 star is that whilst attempting to go here, my group found they close at 4pm. I was very surprised and found it rather early. So there loss was somewhere else's gain that was still open for business.
Stopped there for lunch. Modern and clean inside. Outside seating too. Usual Tiptree menu. Sandwiches, panninies, toasties, jacket potatoes, ceiche, cream teas. Jams, preserves and related gifts available too.
Good place for a city centre cuppa. Offers some gluten free cakes too, which is good better than Costa or Cafe Nero, for instance. Bit cheeky for their payment system to ask you for a tip though, given that its really only a counter serviced.
Two teas and two cakes £19.50. If the cakes had had prices on I wouldn't have bought them. Nearly £8 a cake. The cake was nice but I have had a lot cheaper and nicer in London. I'll buy tea there again but for cake I'll be going elsewhere.
Fist class place to eat while out in town shopping.
